Popular K-pop band, NewJeans, is coming to Fortnite (everything we know) cover image

NewJeans is officially coming to Fortnite.

Fortnite Festival has had some of the biggest collaborations, including The Weeknd, Lady Gaga, Metallica and more. Now, the popular game mode will be bringing the massive K-pop band, New Jeans, to Fortnite.

This means players will not only be able to play as NewJeans in Fortnite Festival but there is a solid chance the collaboration will leak over into the actual Battle Royale too.

So, when is NewJeans coming to Fortnite? And what do we know about the collaboration so far?

When is NewJeans coming to Fortnite?

Fortnite's roadmap for its artist collaborations was leaked only a month or two ago. At the time, players had learned about the Billie Eilish collaboration (which already happened), the Karol G collaboration and the Snoop Dogg collaboration.

On top of all that, Fortnite fans also learned that a K-pop group would be coming to the game. At the time, many believed it to be BLACKPINK, but it was quickly confirmed by leakers that BLACKPINK would not be the band to join Fortnite.

Today, July 19, 2024, many leakers have released that the K-pop band coming to Fortnite will be NewJeans. But when?

NewJeans is set to arrive in Fortnite in December of 2024. There is no official release date yet.
